« on: October 21, 2008, 09:39:16 AM »
Post up your experiences with your local dealerships.  Hopefully we can help others decide where to spend their time and money when making purchases.  Grades A-F

Rocky Mountain Cycle Plaza Colorado Springs, CO

ATV sales- D    They try really hard to push their Polaris line, and have a very closed opinion about other brands.  Prices are average

ATV Parts- C   Very basic knowledge of parts/assesories

Riding Appearal - B  Decent selection of helmets/googles/riding pants/jerseys etc

Overall grade - C   Friendly staff (especially in rider appearal), very brand loyal (Polaris), limited Sport ATV knowledge.

Larson Cycle of Cambridge Mn

ATV sales- D-   I walked in there KNOWING what I wanted. I walked up to a sales asscociate. Told them I'd be in the following weekend cash in hand and wanted to make sure a Blue 06' would be ready for me to leave with. Got there the next weekend. They didn't believe me... I had given them all my info but for some reason.... Whatever. Got there the next weekend. Wasn't ready. Waited for 1 hour. I filled out all my paper work, asked if theyd throw in any gear. they shot me down. not even a damned discount either.

ATV Parts- B+   A couple local MX racers are sponsored through them, good knowlege, very friendly, and general information

Riding Appearal - B  Big selection of Jerseys, Gloves, Helmets, and bags. Little high priced.

Overall grade - C-   Their Parts department really helps these guys out. If it was their sales associates running the place. they'd fail..

Pro Motorsports -west burlington, Iowa.  Owner is a great guy, but never excited to do a deal. Goes and looks in a book for what to charge, then gives you jack for your trade. :confused:  Great place for parts though.
I did buy my first motorcycle from him. It was a pleasant exchange....he could have been f**king me over terrible, I wouldn't have cared. 10 year old dream coming true! :thumbs:

Grade C

I headed up to Nielsens this weekend to pick up a few things and to check out the shop (got to see the 09 SE).  I was more then impressed.  This shop has a very knowledgeable staff and a large selections of quads and gear.  I would rank this shop with some of the top shops I was used to out in southern California.  If your in northern Illinois or southern Wisconsin I highly recommend this Nielsen.

I'm going to go with an A across the board.
07 SE2

They are all riders and racers. Family owned and operated.

Grade C

Gotta adjust this now, he delivered my dream quad. :lol: 

Lane, the owner, stopped by my house to evaluate my trades. I am adding some points for that. Still didn't try really hard to make feel good about the deal. But, overall, I was taken care of. Weird thing is, I had called him many times to see what quads he had in the warehouse, he never mentioned an 07 SE2. But magically, now,  he had one. Oh well, I got what I wanted.
